I Bought An ABANDONED "Pimp My Ride" Minivan For $850 And It's WORSE Than You Think

so we have it and then it's great, we have a card, this in the car, no, that's true, yeah. Yes, we have more things to come. All this for a truck. It's dark outside, that's how much stuff we have. Well, that's a complete car, man, thank you very much. Well, we finally get back to the store and the truck actually looks a little better. dirtier than we left it. Well, this truck should look pretty good in no time, so we've got all of our parts in there, we'll go over that in the next episode, but right now I want to take this apart and I want to clean it up a little, at least get all that mold off when I remove it. the wheels.

I want to remove all the body panels and stuff. be out because that's going to the shop so they can hopefully redo some of this cosmetic damage in time let's get to work and we'll be done look how good it looks actually it looks really sad yeah it's amazing how cheap it is is. Fiberglass side skirts can make a car, yes this Sam look cool this is right so for any of you wondering what a

pimp

looks like my

ride

car under the skin is just a normal car skin, it is literally available underneath and they painted it well. over the entire trim and as you can see only double sided tape was put on there were a lot of self tapping screws but overall it wasn't hard to take apart it wasn't that bad we had some Ross but that's not the car's fault , that's just, yeah, that's just Boston, but it's pleasantly surprising that you cleaned this place up a little bit, yeah versus not cleaned.

I mean, it clicked. I

think

it cleans up pretty well. I mean, it's a brand that's just cleaning up the scum, not in Washington yet. Yes, here is a 3.3-liter V6 engine with 117 horsepower. This will need a lot of work, but I

think

it works well, so we'll replace all the things. Here you will replace the alternator and water palm. power steering pump all the pulleys the belts the hoses right here we are going to recharge the air conditioning we are going to see if it really needs to be recharged and fix all the things like the leaky valve cover and make the air filter, but my favorite Absolute part of all this deconstruction is the brakes, especially this one, now you may not notice much, yeah, it's a worn brake rotor which is nothing to write home about except when you go here.

Wow, okay, so there's a really, really big lip. Right down there it looks like it's just metal on metal and you can see how worn it is, so it's not safe. I'm not sure how it was handled like that. I mean, this must have made an incredible noise. You are left with nothing. of pad and it starts grinding - metal, it sounds horrible and you drive it for quite a long time to be able to burn it that much so one of the things I wanted to address was the underside of this car now that this car has been sitting for four years and has Been up north and wanted to see if this is really good or not and I bet it is and man this looks great, it looks great, there's not an inch of rust anywhere, I mean there's a little things like the exhaust up here, but other than that, I mean, this looks very, very nice and it didn't look like it was in the Northeast for a long time, it actually looked like a California car, one of the few things.

I guess Dodge did a good job on corrosion protection, yeah right, oh yeah, I mean it looks, I'm not going to say it looks new, but it looks very, very serviceable, it doesn't look like anything is going to give us too much trouble , but I. I don't want to curse myself. I have done it, yes, that has happened to us several times. I've done it enough times, so tomorrow morning I'll take this to the shop so they can work on it, but later. I'm coming back because Jarrod is going to be working on this engine and I can't wait for this thing to purr and for this to be an awesome road trip car and an awesome gift for someone I might not know.

It's working fine on the ground and then we'll try to get the TV working so we can have some entertainment during the trip. Jarrod, you're not supposed to say you can watch TV while driving. I'm not the one in the back. it's ah, right, the front monitor, another three, the other nine monitors, another seven, eight monitors, however, a lot of televisions are there, you guys, guys, guys, guys, ah, so Jared pressed the button and that shot to life, so I'm, I'm very, very. I'm excited now so we might have a real footrest that works well so oh yeah yeah.

Oh, everything works on this man.
